Allen & Heath AHM-32 32 x 32 Audio Matrix Processor

Allen & Heath AHM-32 Audio Matrix Processor

The Allen & Heath AHM-32 is a powerful 32-in/32-out audio matrix processor designed for professional sound management and installed audio applications. Built for hospitality venues, corporate facilities, educational institutions, conference centers, and multi-room environments, the AHM-32 delivers flexible audio distribution, processing, and control in a compact rackmount format.

At its core is a high-performance 96kHz FPGA processing engine that provides ultra-low latency operation and reliable audio performance. The processor features 12 channels of bi-directional analog I/O and an expansion port capable of networking up to 128 bi-directional audio channels, making it suitable for both standalone and large-scale distributed audio systems. The unit includes 32 configurable processing outputs that can be assigned for mono zones, stereo zones, or advanced loudspeaker management applications.

The AHM-32 is designed for simple operation and system integration. An easy-to-read front-panel display and intuitive navigation controls allow quick access to system functions, while compatibility with IP1, IP6, and IP8 remote controllers provides convenient remote operation. Eight programmable SoftKeys enable rapid access to volume adjustment, source selection, preset recall, and other commonly used functions.

Comprehensive sound management tools are integrated throughout the processor. These include four automatic microphone mixers, 12 channels of acoustic echo cancellation, ambient noise compensation, and priority ducking for optimized speech intelligibility. Every input and zone benefits from dedicated equalization, dynamics processing, and delay controls. Advanced speaker processing features such as crossover filters, limiters, delay, and EQ allow the AHM-32 to function as a complete audio management solution for complex multi-zone installations.
